Visitor Medical Insurance FAQ - 6


Q

What is a deductible?

A If your plan has a $100 deductible, you pay the first $100 of expenses and then the insurance company picks up the rest. The higher the deductible, the lower the premium cost and vice versa.
   
Q

What are the types of deductible?

A Per incident deductible: You pay the deductible every time you get a new medical ailment (be it sickness of accident related) before the insurance company pays anything. Inbound USA and Inbound Immigrant from SRI have deductible per incident.

Per visit deductible: You pay the deductible every time you you visit a health care provider (doctor, hospital, laboratory etc..) before the insurance company pays anything.

Per policy period deductible: You pay the deductible only once during the entire policy period, irrespective of how many times you get sick or injured during the policy period.

Annual deductible: You pay the deductible only once in a year irrespective of how many times you get sick or injured during the entire year.
   
Q

I made a mistake in entering my data while purchasing the insurance, what should I do?

A You can email us and we will have the changes made to your policy and have a corrected policy sent to you.
   
Q

What is co-insurance?

A

After your deductible is met, co-insurance is the percentage of the covered medical expenses that you, the insured person, must pay.

For instance, if your health plan has an 80/20 co-insurance rate, your insurance plan pays for 80% of your eligible medical expenses and you are responsible for the remaining 20%.
